Abstract:

The method of coaching is one of the tools for developing managerial abilities. The paper presents the results of the assessment of a coaching approach based on comparing the answers of managers who experienced a coaching process and those who did not experience it. In the research of 298 managers (175 managers without the experience of a coaching approach and 123 with a coaching approach), the original methodology AC-BEC (assessment of coaching from the point of view of behaviour, emotions, and cognitions) was used. The results proved different perception of coaching between the coached managers and those managers who were not coached from the point of view of assessing the attribute of emotions.
